Elena’s POV

Moments passed, and all three of us still remained in Ethan‘s room, making it loud in the best way possible.

Laughter bounced off the walls, his small feet thudded against the ground as he ran around happily.

We just sat, watching him, basking in his little bubble. At that moment, I knew I would be willing to do anything in the world for him.

Anything at all.

“Mama, watch this,” he called my attention to him, making a flip in the middle of the room.

“Be careful, Ethan. You don’t want to hurt yourself.”

He grinned. “I won’t, I promise.”

In the next moment, he made another flip again, laughing so hard and trying to catch his breath.

“Ethan, I said, be careful. Are you trying to give Mama a heart attack? You are to brave for your own good.”

He laughed out loud. “That’s because I’m Papa’s son,“ he replied proudly.

Vivienne rolled her eyes jokingly.

“I’ve said it before, and I’m saying it again, the Apha indulges him too much,”

It sounded like a reprimand, but in reality, it

    Elena’s POV“Vivienne, is that you?”I asked as I walked into the kitchen, somewhat surprised to see her here.“Uhm, yes, Luna. Just preparing something for myself.”It seemed weird that she would leave her own apartment and come to prepare something for herself, so I had to ask further.“The stove in your apartment doesn’t work?”She let out a small laugh.“Actually, I just walked in here to spend time with you and Ethan and felt a bit hungry, so I decided to make something for myself.”“Oh.” That made sense.But what didn’t make sense was that what she was preparing smelled like broth soup. The same thing I told the maid to prepare for me. “Oh, that’s surprising. I actually told a maid to prepare the same thing for me.”“Oh, then this must be yours. When I came in here, I actually didn’t meet anyone and just decided to add a few more ingredients to it and keep it for myself. I thought someone must have forgotten it on the stove.”“Urghhh, that silly girl. I’m going to have to repr

    Vivienne’s POVI sighed into the phone, hearing the words falling from his lips.“But Victor, I don’t think she will do it. She doesn’t look like she can ever hurt him.”“Again, as I said, that is exactly her plan. That is what she wants you to believe so you can let your guard down. Besides, she doesn’t have to directly hurt him. She can decide to make him irrelevant. That alone would make your nephew lose what belongs to him.”As soon as he said those words, it was as if the gate of knowledge opened up in my head. Then I realized what he had been trying to tell me all along. Of course, Elena didn’t really love my nephew. She was probably only pretending because I was there.I also realized I had been fighting only one thing all along— the thoughts that she could harm his life. However, with the thing Victor just said, it opened my eyes to something else, and my resolve to get her and her baby out of the White House as soon as possible became stronger.“Fine, I think you’re right, a

    Assistant’s POV.I sat in her living room, waiting for her to come in. The moment the girl pushed to, and she walked in, I jumped to my feet in genuine anticipation. I mean, it was Horace when we were talking about it here. A literal bastard, and I couldn’t even take a simple rest until I heard the results of the silly meeting he called unexpectedly.“So how did the meeting with the bastard go? Did he find out that you had anything to do with it?”She hesitated, which pissed me off because I didn’t have time for any of her silly gimmicks.“Answer me, dammit,” I yelled, jolting her. “Do you think I have all day for this nonsense? Does the hospital suspect you, yes or no?”She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down before she focused her eyes on me.“No, he doesn’t suspect me. At least, not specifically.”“What does that mean? What do you mean by that he doesn’t suspect you specifically?”“It means he’s suspicious of everyone in general. And when I say everyone, I mean every s

    Horace’s POVI don’t even remember walking into the hospital boardroom; I only remember the sound of the door as I let it slam hard.As soon as I walked in, chairs began scraping back, voices died mid-sentence, bodies rose straight to their feet, and a sharp silence fell over the room immediately.The fear was apparent, and they were very right to feel it. My Luna, my Elena, had been set up again, and I was tired of putting up with all the nonsense. We may not have found the culprit, but it didn’t mean I couldn’t do something about the missing equipment at that moment.I stood at the head of the table, taking a good look around before settling myself down.“Sit,” I said, my voice low.But they knew better than to disobey me even if it wasn’t loud.They all sat down without still making a single noise. Doctors, nurses, supervisors, every manager from every hospital, and the four nurses in the room with my wife were All present.Every single person I knew who could be connected to th

    Elena’s POVI woke up slowly. Not the startled kind of waking, not the kind where my heart rose as I thought about the possibility of another foul news. None of that.Instead, my face stretched into a wide smile as my mind replayed the memories of last night. Memories that every part of my body still remembered with how they arched.An ache that was absolutely welcomed.I remembered everything— an act that settled a warmth deep in my chest and low in my belly. I remembered the way he looked at me, the way he always did, managing to make me forget all my problems in that very second.Managing to make me feel like the only girl in the world.For those few hours, the world had stopped around us, fading everything in its wake, except our touch and memory of each other.Although it didn’t last as long as we wanted it to, it was still very magical.We had been called to the White House in the middle of the night after Ethan woke up from a nightmare, crying hysterically and refusing to slee
